…ation (#199) - Add vela-e2e integration test crate with 6 test suites (55 tests) - Suite 1: Watchdog + EventBus — event emission, subscribers, history - Suite 2: Slot Manager + Lifecycle — transitions, metrics, terminal states - Suite 3: Hub Client + Retry + Download — retry exhaustion, checksum, auth - Suite 4: Full Pipeline — phase order, terminal states, config - Suite 5: Error Recovery — space errors, retry behavior, fallback path - Suite 6: Configuration — defaults, custom configs, error conversions - Add SlotManager + SlotLabel types to vela-slotmgr - Fix 40+ pre-existing compilation errors across workspace crates - Fix dependency versions (x509-cert, csbindgen, hmac, ring compat) - Fix platform compatibility (watchdog on Windows via cfg guards) - Fix API mismatches in orchestrator, hub client, download, flashpack
…202) - Add vela-delta crate with sliding-window block-matching algorithm - Binary diff generator: generate_delta(old, new) -> DeltaResult<Vec<u8>> - Patch applier: apply_patch(base, delta) -> DeltaResult<Vec<u8>> - DeltaManifest format for .fpk delta.manifest metadata - VDLT magic header with SHA-256 integrity verification - 19 unit tests including roundtrip, hash verification, edge cases - Integrates with FlashPack PayloadType::Delta
- Add vela-builder binary crate with 5 subcommands - build: construct .fpk from payload with configurable metadata - verify: validate FlashPack structure and display header info - info: detailed FlashPack metadata display (all header fields + SHA-256) - delta: generate binary delta between two files via vela-delta - sign: stub for future PEM key signing integration - Fix import in vela-delta diff.rs
- Add IPlatformStrategy interface with VelaPlatform, UpdateMethod enums - Add LinuxStrategy (P0): A/B slot model, delegates to Rust FFI - Add WindowsStrategy (P2): UWF/WU Agent/file overlay paths (stub) - Add StrategyResolver: runtime OS detection + explicit platform selection - Add SlotInfo and FlashPackMetadata DTOs - Update Velaris.Sdk.csproj with Native AOT publish settings - Add Velaris.Sdk.Tests project with 20 xUnit tests - All 20 C# tests passing (0 warnings, 0 errors) - Add Microsoft.Extensions.Logging + DI abstractions

Pull request overview
Adds a platform-strategy abstraction to the C# Velaris SDK (intended to be Native AOT-friendly) and also introduces new Rust workspace crates for delta generation/patching and a FlashPack builder CLI.
Changes:
- Introduce
IPlatformStrategyplus Linux/Windows strategy implementations and aStrategyResolverfor runtime/explicit selection. - Add a new C# test project with unit tests for strategies and resolver.
- Add Rust
vela-delta(diff/patch + manifest) andvela-builderCLI, and register both in thevela-coreworkspace.
